Pirates and Farmers by Dave Hickey

Arguably one of the most astute art and cultural critics working today, Hickey's collection of essays questions and challenges the cultural status quo.

Dave Hickey (1938–2021) was arguably one of the most astute art critics of recent times. His multi-decade career as a leading cultural commentator earned him the nickname 'the enfant terrible of art criticism'. He wrote for major publications in the United States, from Rolling Stone to Art in America and the New York Times, as well as for frieze, Parkett and the London Review of Books in Europe. His book Air Guitar: Essays on Art and Democracy was a memoir of 'love songs for people who live in a democracy'. Hickey was awarded a MacArthur 'genius grant' in 2001.
